Would have taken the Z7 for a spin if one were available. Here is Olive at lunch today - Z6 kit lens at 70mm, camera detail provided: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Canada+2020/DSC_0045.jpg.html <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Canada+2020/DSC_0045.jpg.html> Esther and Olive at the Indigo Bookstore, Chinook Centre. Z6 and Leica 28mm Elmarit bayoneted to Nikon Lens and attached via adapter. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Canada+2020/DSC_0004.jpg.html <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Canada+2020/DSC_0004.jpg.html> Esther and Olive at Red Lobster for lunch. The 24 - 70 kit lens at 70 - sharpest kit lens I have ever handled. Not kind to older faces. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Canada+2020/DSC_0084.jpg.html <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Canada+2020/DSC_0084.jpg.html> Aubrey getting ready for karate: Z6 and the 24 - 85 Nikkor lens at 85 - not as sharp as the kit lens; http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Canada+2020/DSC_0084.jpg.html <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Canada+2020/DSC_0084.jpg.html> Aubrey and Olive in their Karate outfits; The Z6 and the 24 - 85 at 58mm http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Canada+2020/DSC_0084.jpg.html <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Canada+2020/DSC_0084.jpg.html> As a Nikon user the Z6 is quite easy to adapt to - but I am pretty sure it is not a replacement for my D500 for bird work. Any luggers using their Leica M lenses on a Z and happy with the results? May be viewed larger if you like (recommended in fact). C&C always welcome Howard.
